Developed the backend for the Capstone-Projects-2025-Spring/project-003-story-builder-team-1 repository, delivering a scalable API and robust data models to support collaborative storytelling features. Focused on secure user authentication, agent and story workflows, and data integrity, the work included implementing MongoDB persistence with Mongoose, evolving schemas for stories, critiques, and agents, and establishing environment-based configuration. Integrated password hashing using bcrypt and improved code coverage with Jest and Supertest. Refactored routing and controller logic for maintainability, enhanced test data and QA processes, and addressed numerous bugs to ensure reliability. The project was built primarily with JavaScript, Node.js, and Express.js.
April 2025 backend delivery for Capstone-Projects-2025-Spring/project-003-story-builder-team-1 focused on establishing a scalable API foundation, data-model evolution, and secure authentication to enable rapid feature delivery and a robust agent/story workflow. Highlights include API scaffolding with route/controller structure, backend endpoints for future CRUD on agents, and improved routing alignment; significant data-model refactor to unify critiques into the story model, plus agent-specific chapters and outlines; password hashing via bcrypt and environment hygiene to secure credentials and config; and extensive test/data improvements to support QA and reliability.

March 2025 (Capstone-Projects-2025-Spring/project-003-story-builder-team-1): Delivered foundational backend capabilities for a production-ready story builder, focusing on data persistence, user authentication, and robust data modeling to support narrative features. Established MongoDB persistence via Mongoose with a refactored connection lifecycle and environment-based configuration; implemented a comprehensive User Management System with authentication support and password hashing; evolved data models for Story, Critique, Vote, and Agent to enable narrative-building workflows. Addressed data integrity and model consistency through targeted fixes (Vote.js, column names/types, and removal of an obsolete email field). Also improved backend quality with coverage reporting updates and general maintenance. These changes establish a scalable foundation for multi-user storytelling features while strengthening security, maintainability, and deployment readiness.
